Since Yuan Tian did not know what to do with the virtuous Little Chenyan, she quietly said, "Listen to Old Mistress' advice and bring Zhao Yanni home so she can celebrate the Spring Festival. That way, mother and daughter can be together..."
Mu Chenyan was emotionless. Her innermost being that had been lonely for so many days finally felt touched. She thought of her own mother who was quietly lying on the hospital bed...

After dinner, Yuan Xuan saw Mu Chenyan hiding in the small tea room all alone.
She hugged the electric heater to warm herself up because there were no heaters installed in the room. As she huddled up to the warmth, the graceful woman's body became limp and weary. Her half-closed eyes seemed extremely hazy.
Steam rose from the black tea that she had recently made and placed on the small tea table beside her. Amidst the curling fog, the fresh scent of tea tickled one's nose before infecting one's body.
